The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, has described the Supreme Court judgment which upheld the election of Nyesom Wike as governor of Rivers State as shocking.
Odigie-Oyegun said this while receiving a delegation of party members from Rivers State in Abuja on Wednesday.
According to him, the judgment shows that there is something fundamentally wrong with the nation’s judiciary.
The party chairman said, “I still find the judgment on the Rivers State governorship election totally astonishing. There is something fundamentally wrong in the Judiciary.
“We have lost very important resource-rich states to the PDP. No matter how crude oil prices have fallen, it is still the most important revenue earner for the country.”
“There is obviously something fundamentally wrong in Rivers state which needs to be investigated and addressed.”
Odigie-Oyegun assured the visiting party leaders that the APC’s national leadership had not neglected the party’s supporters in Rivers State.
He noted that the state has always been in the front burner of discussions and decision in the party.
He told the delegation that their visit has had a sober effect on him adding that the meeting with party leaders from the state will kick start urgent actions to address what went wrong.
Odigie-Oyegun lamented what he called attempts by the Independent National Electoral Commission to bar the APC from elections in Anambra and other states which he said the party was trying to address.
He assured the delegation that he would take up their request to facilitate a meeting with the President. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
